Women, feminism, and geek culture

One scoop of linkspam flavour, please (27th June, 2010)

John Scalzi’s post on the failure mode of “clever” is “asshole” seems awfully obvious given the number of really appallingly terrible pickup lines that people’ve tried to use on me as a geek woman. Just saying.

Damn Yâ€™all White Wolf: kaninchenzero writes about developing a disabled character in White Wolf's Exalted, and issues around using the Flaw system (related to a Ask a Geek Feminist question we had a while back).
